Today in court, during the current ongoing legal battle between Apple and Samsung, an internal email thread between four Apple execs—Eddy Cue, Tim Cook, Scott Forstall, and Phil Schiller—was released into evidence. The subject of the email: size matters. No, really. Those are Cue's words, not mine.

The point Samsung's team was trying to make with this particular piece of evidence is that Apple keeps close watch over and takes great interest in the products of other companies in their peer group.
